Try Glitch Kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
I cant seem to find the link. Can someone post please?
[Captivate Android Development] ak789:
i agree...some blame has to be the RAM of captivate, its just like the running WIN7 on older machines :d ;)

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 PM ----------

Is there link where we can check known issues which work on the Stock Kernel (4.2) and Glitch? That will help in deciding if switching kernel really makes sense :D
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
FOR THOSE COMPLAINING OF CHOPPINESS/LAG/LES THAN STELLAR PERFORMANCE...ITS ALL IN THE KERNEL!!!!!!!!! not to knock it because we appreciate all the dev and time spent on making it, IcyGlitch just PERFORMS. Everything works and its just SMOOTH. Now if team glitch can come up with a hack that gives us 100mb more ram we'd be golden!!!! :D

Stock is in the rom. What they call as known is in OP. Glitch kernel devs do NOT support ICSSGS, but it does work. Close to flawless on my end. Only thing I can say is flash try it. If by any chance you don't like it reflash ICSSGS 4.x rom and you will go back to stock kernel and not loose data. (shouldn't at least)
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
Outstanding. Can you tell us where to get this kernel so we can enjoy the work the developers have done as well?

Eeek!

So there I am unlocking my phone to do smartphone-esque stuff when suddenly my phone rang mid unlock. I then proceeded to quickly answer the call. Next thing I know I'm staring at my camera and unable to hear anything. I chalk it up to "**** happens", pulled the battery, and rebooted. That's when the fecal matter hit the proverbial fan. After the AT&T logo the screen goes black and the keys at the bottom light up when touched. Nothing else happens.

I was running RC 3.1 with stock kernel. Although I can easily get into recovery or use odin to go back to stock, I really want to not lose my data. I haven't backed up in maybe two weeks :(

Any suggestions on how to save my non backed up data?
[Captivate Android Development] rotman253:
can someone please tell me if this kernel will work with my SGS I9000? I really want to install it...
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Have you performed a nandroid backup recently? You can try clearing cache and dalvik cache in recovery....if it doesn't work your gonna need a restore or reflash unless its completely BORKED and have to go odin

[Captivate Android Development] Psychemage:
I was afraid you'd say that. No nandroid recently and I had already tried the cahces.

What about copying the data directory to the computer and putting it back after flashing?
[Captivate Android Development] ronkoni:
My phone keep shutting down after few min of inactivity.

ver 2.11 works all day with no problems, but any ver after that, including 4.1 keeps shutting down on me.

tried few different kernels and other ICS roms with same results. the only ICS rom that seems to not have this problem for me is ICSSGS 2.11 and below.

any suggestions?

I am running ICSSGS RC 4.1 and Icy Glitch V14B2 and I am wondering if anyone else has experienced declines in USB transfer speed when transferring a large amount of files to the internal memory? I copied 10GB of music files to my Captivate and the first 2-3GBs transferred at a normal rate, around 2-3MB/second but after that, the speed declines to about 500KB/second. I have tried a different computer, and different files, and turning off all apps/putting phone into Airplane made to limit any CPU bottleneck...both transferring onto the phone's memory and off, and the result is the same. Significant slow down in speed after a couple GBs transferred.
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
Using Glitch Kernel Updater....

I am using the Auto and Manual options to browse or install the latest kernels. Every option just pops a window saying CHoose Rom but there are no Roms there.

EDIT: Did it manually (i'm out 5 bucks) and loaded icyglitch thru CWM. Works but now alot of screens are loading landscape only and nowhere to make them portrait.

Its a little faster and snappier but nowhere near CM7.
[Captivate Android Development] jeffro7172:
my phone has never worked better on stock kernel or glitch so I don't get the laggy, slow comments. Just a couple things I'd like to tweak and still working on those, but loving the ICS!
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
Every option i choose in any app switches the phone to Landscape and i cant get it back to portrtait.

By moving the phone around it changes from landscape to portrait almost intermittently. Almost like the meter (gyro?) inside the phone is jacked.

Back to CM7 for me.
[Captivate Android Development] shaker2k:
Don't feel to bad. I'm sure glitch appreciates the support! I got it myself just to support them.
[Captivate Android Development] rotman253:
installed glitch v14b3 on my I9000 , the home key don't work and the landscape and portrait mode is opposite ... bumer..

so what kernel do you recommend ? up until now I've used the Devil15.1...

any other suggestions?

Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
That means you installed the wrong b3 kernel. If you go to the kernel thread you'll find what you need
[Captivate Android Development] rotman253:
I can't ... those are the supported phones : Captivate, Vibrant, Telus Fascinate, Verizon Fascinate.

Is one of them is the I9000? I really don't know
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
Here's an idea Scotty Boy, instead ov vague answers like "Check the Thread", and "you chose the wrong one", why not just come right out and tell us what we are doing wrong?

I dont know why i have the wrong kernel just that i do. i have checked the bloody thread and i cant see where i am going wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] ak789:
it should be pretty easy, i have dwnld it and in the name it says captivate (which is my phone), didnt install so i hope i dont get the home button issue :D
[Captivate Android Development] rotman253:
ok , don't know how I've missed the fact that there is a different kernel for my phone?

any way this is what the kernel says on the download page :

WARNING : THIS KERNEL IS USING MASS STORAGE USB MODE BY DEFAULT. IF YOUR ROM IS USING MTP BY DEFAULT, MAKE SURE TO SWITCH TO MTP IN GLITCH RECOVERY JUST AFTER FLASHING THE KERNEL, OR YOU'LL END IN A BOOTLOOP. YOU CAN THEN SWITCH TO MASS STORAGE IF YOU WANT AFTER A FIRST BOOT.

so , which is ICSSGS?

thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] shane.kelly55:
I was able to get back to a fresh install of ICSSGS without Glitch cause that doesnt work at all.

I would like to speed things up. Does anyone have an ICS kernel for the captivate that is better that Glitch?
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
You perhaps should be looking in the i9000 section for the appropriate version of the kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] Bigred1991:
Question

After restoring my apps apk and data using mybackup root, it tells me to reboot the phone. Well when I try to reboot it just stays on the boot screen and never boots. I did another wipe and re-installed the rom but the same thing happened. Could it be one of the apps data is corrupted or something?
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
Your choices are limited at the moment. Its either the "stock" kernel or Glitch really.

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

Restoring apps with data on ICS can cause problems.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Because telling you what your doing wrong about a kernel, especially one not even supported by this ROM in a thread devoted to that ROM when a thread for said kernel exists goes against what the devs prefer.

Vague answers are all your going to get here on Glitch. Detailed answers get given in the Glitch thread. That's why it's there.

I can tell you it works smooth as butter and I'll help any way i can over on that thread.

There are two different kernels for 897 and 9000 and one of the surest signs of kernel/rom incompatibilty is soft key and orientation problems as he is experiencing. If he has a 9000 he needs to flash the 9000 kernel not the 897.

I'm not trying to bash you or him, I'm just trying to follow what the devs of this ROM have asked over and over. Keep glitch here to a minimum because it doesn't support this ROM.

Many of us here are running the kernel successfully and follow both threads and will be happy to help you all "OVER THERE"

Or PM and I'll go into detailed help as much as I can. I am by far no master at this stuff.

I am however a master of trial and error. If there is a way to screw up this phone I have done it. Trust me

My jig is my best friend
[Captivate Android Development] rotman253:
thanks , found it...

anyway now my only problem is I don't know if our rom uses MTP by default or not...

"this is what the kernel says on the download page :

WARNING : THIS KERNEL IS USING MASS STORAGE USB MODE BY DEFAULT. IF YOUR ROM IS USING MTP BY DEFAULT, MAKE SURE TO SWITCH TO MTP IN GLITCH RECOVERY JUST AFTER FLASHING THE KERNEL, OR YOU'LL END IN A BOOTLOOP. YOU CAN THEN SWITCH TO MASS STORAGE IF YOU WANT AFTER A FIRST BOOT.

THIS ROM DID NOT MAKE ME BREAKFAST IN THE MORNING AS THE OP STATES! WHAT A BUNCH OF LIES! :mad::mad:

Seriously though, excellent work. I have the occasional random reboot when I have too much crap open at once on the phone, but I accept full responsibility for that. And I do still get the occasional lockscreen freeze-up, but again, this may have been my fault for not clearing something or another. Everything else has been working flawlessly. Thank you team ICSSGS for your hard work and dedication to this project.

I am running SGSICS 4.1 with Icy Glitch. While I know glitch is not supported, after 6 days into my billing cycle I noticed I have used 65% of my 2GB cap :eek:.

It looks like my "using data even on Wifi" is back. I don't expect support for it but I wanted to let others know in case they might be having the same issue.

I plan on re-flashing the rom. I might try going back to platypus first.

**Edit**

Found 4.1 Kernel here http://db.tt/cAWHaAu5
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Hey i'm getting some really odd Battery performance and usage data, Android OS is over 29%. And another thing i noticed is that Plume (Twitter client) doen't show on stasts and i use it almost every half an hour.

Also my hole system was a little laggy (Stock browser and Chrome Beta both took a lot of time to start) so before anyone stops reading this and says flash Glitch Kernel i should say that by now i have already flashed it and i could see the improvement right away. But i will have to test it tomorrow during a normal day of use and will keep an eye on the battery also.

So, now that i have already stated that i flashed the Glitch Kernel, does anyone know why i had that high Android OS values or why it didn't show Plume? (another theory is that Plume is counting as part of Android OS which would be a little odd)
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
It doesn't show on Data usage? Didn't you noticed the loading time? Or is it some kind of use half data half wifi? And lastly what about the icons on the notification bar, does it show both wifi and H/3G/E/G or whatever you have?

I'm asking because i'm concerned about the issue, want to know if it could happen to me so i can prevent it.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Search on posts by demon in this thread. He posted a direct link for the platypus kernel.

---------- Post added at 11:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 PM ----------

normal numbers for OS with ics from what I've read. You can verify your wifi easily by just turning data off and seeing if you can connect to the internet
[Captivate Android Development] roofus:
Yes I does show on data usage

Most of the usage was Google listen ~800MB which was downloading in the background. I do not do Mich web browsing on the phone. It was showing a blue wifi signal with blue phone signal without a letter. Typically no letter means mobile data is turned off which was not the case. I did flash back to OP Kernel and it seems to fix the issue. I am going to flash glitch and see if it comes back. I am also using KG3 modem.
[Captivate Android Development] Psychemage:
That is not that high at all. Its been thoroughly discussed earlier in the thread that there's something about ICS rolling other processes into Android OS making it appear bloated. When you hit the mid to high 40s then you should be concerned.

---------- Post added at 12:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------

KERNEL! You're not the only one and I don't mean to single you out, but there are several individuals in this thread that have some sort of opposition to spelling kernel correctly.

All that aside, if you go into settings-data usage and hit menu there's an option to show wifi data usage. Its a good way to make sure you're using wifi.
[Captivate Android Development] snoboarder071:
So the other night I was taking some pictures and my camera went black. All the settings and functions showed but it was like I was trying to take a picture in pitch black. It was an easy enough fix, just restored the camera app with TiBu. Just an odd occurrence that I thought I'd report. Oh yea and I've also been having problems with gmail sync. Not getting my emails or notifications :confused: sometimes it's spotty, sometimes I get nothing

LOL WOW. I had turned off sync. So strange how your email doesn't sync when you have sync turned off. Anyone have a link to a tutorial for turning on sync? maybe I should try a new modem :D
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
1. Camera issue = you hit the icon that switches to f/f camera which you're phone doesn't have. Leaves with black screen. You could have just rotated back to the other and fixed your problem.

2. Settings/Accounts tap on account and select or deselect what you want to sync or not
[Captivate Android Development] Psychemage:
Scotty doesn't know that the second part was sarcasm (at least I hope it was. Honestly, I just wanted to say Scotty doesn't know so everyone would get that song stuck in their heads) =P

But I concur with his analysis of the camera issue. I've definitely hit, the ffc button and been left wondering what the hell I did for a few seconds.
[Captivate Android Development] snoboarder071:
I was just kidding around about how to turn sync on. But now it looks like I had two dumb problems instead of just one so jokes on me! :) Funny how random buttons get hit when you've had a bit to drink....
[Captivate Android Development] droiduzr2:
WOW! Very Impressive.

You guys are really close to a finished product.

Your team has 3 small items to fix vs. other Teams/ROMS.

Any chance you can include a ICS Rom for the Infuse since the Captivate and Infuse are similar?
[Captivate Android Development] wisepage:
Worked on me! Great song to have stuck though!

:)
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Great, thanks for that. Another question i have is if it's normal to have (According to Titanium Backup) System ROM 262 MB (1.79 MB free)? Is that amount of free pace normal or did i forgot to clear something?? (i'm asking cause the ROM zip was about 150MB)

EDIT: Forgot about my noob question of the day, could i re-flash the ROM without changing the Kernel? Because first time i flashed battery was at 80% or just do 2 or 3 cycles of full charge/discharge?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Kernel is in the .zip. Unless you change the files required it will always flash Platypus. You can just flash the rom and reflash the kernel (I'm guessing Icy Glitch) and you should be golden. ROM zip doesn't wipe data (if on RC4.x) so w/e voltage settings will be stored.

System ROM as in Read Only Memory will never change after flashing. It is almost always completely full.

How can I remove the google search widget?
[Captivate Android Development] sremick:
If this is actually true I'm going to have to avoid all ICS ROMs then. Sort of defeats the purpose of keeping backups if I can't use them and keep my data protected.
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
Where you coming from GB? You can restore apps without data but certain ones will not restore properly with data. Trial and error really
[Captivate Android Development] soumian:
Oh but as i restored to Stock (100% battery) before flashing this ROM which i used for some hours causing the discharge to ~80% and then flashed ICSSGS without wipe. So i guess the poor battery life i had before was because of some random leak or bug i had with Platypus kernel. Thanks for the answers, i was thinking of flash ROM and then Kernel but as it wont change a thing i'm just gonna stay like this.

I restored data only on apps i wanted/needed to be restored like some games or other things. I think the problem comes when you restore data to apps that aren't compatible/made for Android 4.0. You could just install all and restore data ofapps that you find indispensable.

Ok, phew. That's good to know. I wasn't trying to be an ass... I really do want to move to ICS at some point. It's just frustrating how many times I've seen in all sorts of threads that people slam restoring app data like it's forbidden and just not something you do... while in other threads users are made to feel it's expected you back up all your data so you CAN restore it in the event something goes wrong ("you made backups, right?"). :) I rely heavily on Titanium Backup (paid user) and I can't imagine being expected to just give up the ability to restore my data as "the norm".

Anyhow, I'll go back into lurk mode to follow the 6+ ICS ROM threads now... :)
[Captivate Android Development] snoboarder071:
I haven't had problems with data either. Only exceptions being google talk and google music. But those, and many many other apps are all cloud based anyways so if they are acting up, restoring without data isn't a problem.
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
Right, you can restore but it can cause problems (as in no guarantees) :)

The ones I had issues with were not ICS compatible or the data never restored properly

You can flash this ROM at near dead battery and it is not going to affect battery life afterwards. Just flash and charge full and then let discharge till it cuts offs because of dead battery. Do this twice in a row and you'll be fine

I would like to find out how to go into download mode in this ROM. One caveat is that my power button is not working. Therefore, I need a method that does not require pressing the power button.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Terminal emulator from market .. type "su" then "reboot download"
[Captivate Android Development] ulupinar:
Thanks for the reply. I tried it, it did not quite work. It rebooted into recovery mode rather than download mode. Am I missing something?

Thanks for your help.
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Are you on captivate boot loaders? Because it is up/down plus usb
[Captivate Android Development] ulupinar:
I am on gingerbread bootloaders. After my power button stopped working, somehow, I can not power down the phone. It boots as soon as I insert the battery. Hence, I can not try up/down plus usb insert :(

If I do up/down + USB insert w/o the batter nothing happens. When I add the battery, it boots normally.

I seems I can not go into download mode at all. Is there a different kernel for this ICS that hopefully have download mode in the recovery?

This recovery does not have download option.
